what_o growth_n he_o have_v get_v by_o the_o sacrament_n in_o assurance_n of_o god_n favour_n in_o strength_n against_o corruption_n in_o power_n to_o walk_v with_o god_n in_o obedience_n unto_o he_o

we_o may_v observe_v out_o of_o the_o first_o book_n of_o samuel_n and_o the_o 15._o chap._n first_o he_o be_v very_o forward_o in_o boast_v of_o his_o obedience_n and_o to_o have_v a_o very_a high_a esteem_n of_o himself_o by_o reason_n thereof_o though_o it_o be_v nothing_o so_o as_o we_o may_v see_v in_o the_o 13._o verse_n say_v saul_n there_o to_o samuel_n after_o he_o be_v come_v from_o the_o slaughter_n of_o the_o amalekite_n the_o very_a first_o word_n he_o utter_v to_o he_o i_o have_v perform_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n though_o it_o be_v nothing_o so_o as_o samuel_n show_v there_o unto_o he_o for_o say_v he_o to_o he_o what_o then_o mean_v this_o bleat_a of_o sheep_n and_o this_o low_v of_o ox_n in_o my_o ear_n for_o god_n commandment_n to_o he_o be_v to_o slay_v all_o man_n and_o woman_n young_a and_o old_a infant_z and_o suckling_n ox_n and_o sheep_n camel_n and_o ass_n but_o these_o he_o have_v save_v alive_a second_o he_o make_v religion_n a_o cloak_n for_o to_o cover_v and_o hide_v his_o sin_n or_o at_o least_o to_o lessen_v it_o when_o it_o be_v discover_v so_o saul_n here_o when_o samuel_n have_v begin_v to_o tell_v he_o of_o his_o sin_n why_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v you_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o blame_v we_o for_o this_o for_o the_o people_n take_v of_o the_o best_a of_o the_o sheep_n and_o the_o ox_n to_o sacrifice_n unto_o the_o

and_o so_o we_o see_v here_o that_o when_o samuel_n have_v show_v saul_n his_o sin_n in_o save_v the_o sheep_n and_o ox_n alive_a the_o which_o god_n have_v command_v he_o for_o to_o destroy_v yet_o for_o all_o that_o he_o justify_v himself_o and_o say_v i_o have_v obey_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o have_v go_v the_o way_n the_o lord_n send_v i_o four_o the_o hypocrite_n when_o he_o be_v tell_v of_o his_o sin_n he_o will_v extenuate_v and_o lessen_v it_o and_o shift_v it_o off_o upon_o other_o so_o saul_n here_o vers_n 21._o the_o people_n take_v of_o the_o spoil_n sheep_n and_o ox_n the_o chief_a of_o the_o thing_n which_o shall_v have_v be_v destroy_v to_o sacrifice_n unto_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n in_o g●lgall_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v thou_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o lay_v all_o the_o fault_n upon_o i_o it_o be_v the_o people_n that_o save_v these_o alive_a five_o hypocrite_n when_o they_o be_v convince_v of_o their_o sin_n and_o they_o humble_v themselves_o for_o they_o and_o do_v confess_v and_o acknowledge_v they_o it_o be_v of_o constraint_n not_o because_o they_o be_v grieve_v for_o that_o they_o have_v offend_v god_n thereby_o but_o because_o they_o see_v some_o evil_a or_o judgement_n be_v like_a to_o befall_v they_o for_o the_o same_o as_o in_o the_o 23._o and_o 24_o verse_n saul_n will_v never_o be_v bring_v to_o say_v i_o have_v sin_v till_o such_o time_n as_o samuel_n tell_v he_o what_o will_v come_v of_o it_o say_v because_o thou_o have_v reject_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n therefore_o he_o have_v reject_v thou_o from_o be_v king_n than_o he_o say_v i_o have_v sin_v for_o i_o have_v transgress_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o thy_o word_n all_o the_o time_n before_o nothing_o can_v be_v get_v from_o he_o but_o this_o i_o have_v obey_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n etc._n etc._n six_o and_o last_o hypocrite_n when_o they_o see_v that_o their_o sin_n and_o hypocrisy_n be_v discou●red_v they_o do_v not_o so_o much_o desire_v to_o get_v into_o god_n favour_n and_o to_o make_v their_o peace_n with_o god_n as_o to_o keep_v it_o from_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n that_o it_o may_v not_o turn_v to_o be_v a_o reproach_n and_o a_o scandal_n upon_o they_o but_o that_o still_o the_o world_n may_v think_v well_o of_o they_o and_o may_v have_v they_o in_o high_a account_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o as_o may_v appear_v in_o the_o 30._o verse_n do_v most_o trouble_n saul_n for_o saul_n he_o have_v make_v a_o fair_a show_n and_o have_v profess_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o love_n and_o obedience_n to_o god_n but_o now_o he_o be_v catch_v tardy_a and_o his_o hypocrisy_n discover_v fear_v this_o shall_v turn_v to_o his_o shame_n in_o regard_n of_o his_o former_a great_a profession_n after_o a_o sleight_n confession_n that_o he_o make_v of_o his_o sin_n in_o general_a say_v i_o have_v sin_v say_v he_o honour_v i_o yet_o now_o i_o pray_v thou_o before_o the_o elder_n of_o my_o people_n and_o before_o israel_n whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o this_o be_v the_o chief_a and_o main_a thing_n that_o he_o stand_v upon_o his_o credit_n and_o reputation_n in_o the_o world_n
